Deaths

Cases

Hospitalization rates provide an indication of the severity of current cases. Note, however, that not all states report these data and some states have only recently begun reporting. This is particuarly true for ICU and ventilator counts. As a result, some of the observed changes in patient counts over time reflect changes in the set of reporting states.

Testing

State Data

This section summarizes state-level data. State-level graphs are shown for the largest 15 states by population, which account for 66 percent of the total U.S. population.

## Cases

Testing

Interpretation of differences in case rates across states is complicated by the fact that those states that do more thorough testing will invariably uncover more cases. A lower positive test rate is an indication that a state is doing more comprehensive testing since, when testing is rationed, only those individuals who are more likely to test positive are typically tested. The following chart compares the one-week increase in detected cases to the the number of tests administered by each state relative to population. The states of greatest current concern are those with both a large increase in detected cases and a relatively small increase in tests. These states lie in the upper-left of the chart.
